INSTALLING PERLPP

  0) You must have perl 5 to use perlpp.  All linux distributions
     have perl 5 as an installation options.  For other operating
     systems, see www.perl.org for information on getting and
     installing perl.

  1) The latest version of perlpp is available from

       ftp://zot.mesastate.edu/pub/wmacevoy/perlpp/

     Check to see that you have the latest version first.

  2) Do the following

       gunzip perlpp-0.5.tar.gz
       tar xf perlpp-0.5.tar
       cd perlpp-0.5
       perl install.pl [-prefix=/directory] [-perl=/abs/path]

     If you run perl 5 with something other than "perl", then
     use that in the place of perl above.

     The default prefix directory is /usr/local.

     The default location of perl 5 is from the following list:

        $PERL5
        $PERL
	/usr/bin/perl
	/usr/local/bin/perl
	/usr/bin/perl5
	/usr/local/bin/perl5
        <$PATH-directory>/perl
        <$PATH-directory>/perl5

     The first place a version 5 or newer perl is found is used.

     If it's none of these, or the one it picks out isn't the
     one you wish to use, use the -perl=path option.

DOCUMENTATION
